Purchase Payments allocated to and any amounts transferred to the Subaccounts will be applied to provide accumulation units in those Subaccounts. The number of accumulation units purchased in a Subaccount will be determined by dividing the amount allocated to or transferred to that Subaccount, by the value of an accumulation unit for that Subaccount on the purchase payment or transfer date. The number of accumulation units withdrawn or transferred from the Subaccounts will be determined by dividing the amount withdrawn or transferred by the value of an accumulation unit for that Subaccount on the withdrawal or transfer date. The value of an accumulation unit on any business day is determined by multiplying the value of that unit at the end of the immediately preceding valuation period by the net investment factor for the valuation period. The net investment factor used to calculate the value of an accumulation unit in each Subaccount for the valuation period is determined by dividing (a) by (b) and subtracting (c) from the result, where:
